While the final births of Generation Alpha has been marked four years ago, understanding their defining attributes remains elusive at their formative age of 4-14. Noting especially the fact that Gen Y & Z that came before them has been the least internally idiosyncratic for better and worse under multi-faceted flux of influences. on the mutual side, the latter two were nicknamed the "Strawberry Generation" for their perceived sensitivity, Both qualities attributed to the overwhelming role that the information age has been having in shaping the digital natives and early settlers that sets them apart from the previous rest.

Named after the initial phase of testing period in software release, Closed Alpha Testing aims to scope into the world which our most impressionable fledglings have been plunged into through their predecessors personal or critical lens, as none other comes near in familiarity as older sibling figures for the rapidly shifting sandbox.
